Avatar m tn He said fibromylagia. Mind you my last neurologist did the same thing and told me to go to Johns Hopkins to get looked at further. So I think I wasted my time. I got a prescription for Savella so we'll see how it works. My only concern is the fact that no one up to this point has done an MRI of my brain. Should I wait it out with Savella or push to have them do the MRI and/or Spinal just to rule stuff out? I had a MRI of my spine last year and nothing showed up.

Avatar f tn Could the low ejection fraction (13%) have been responsible for an inability, in my daughters case, to eat fat for most of her life, have excruciating abdominal pain on average twice weekly, that would sort of combine constipation and ultimately diarrhea, but now, in the last year, nausea and occasionally throwing up (at least feeling nausous) -- when it was diarrhea type stomach aches (i use the term stomach aches lightly, because they were more like 4 hour episodes, that she'd ultimately b
Avatar f tn She is on a ketogenic diet to help with the Lyme, so she gets low carbs, no sugar or processed foods, no dyed foods, no grains. I have called her pediatrician and scheduled an appointment to evaluate her, but thought I would ask here as well, because it'll be two weeks before they can see her. Thoughts, insights? Anything specific ringing a belly that I should look deeper into? Is there a connection to children's emotions and lyme, or is this two separate issues?
1353681 tn?1387083733 Has she had her nutrient levels checked? Especially electrolytes? How's her diet? Has she tried cutting out dairy, wheat, and other common allergens?

If she's tried absolutely everything, it's time to see better docs, such as going to Mayo Clinic or Johns Hopkins.
Avatar n tn My child has had a g-tube for 6 years because of the ketogenic diet in which she is coming off now, she eats everything, no problem with swallowing, she drinks a whole can of pop at times but how do I get her to drink her whole fluid alotment of 1500ml a day? Or will she pick it up once I can offer her a variety of drinks?
Avatar n tn May I suggest you do some research on the Ketogenic Diet. It is a huge lifestyle change, but is totally worth it. Ketogenic lifestyle requires that you cut out almost all carbs. You eat less than 20g of carbs a day, moderate amount of protein 50-100g/day (60-75 is ideal for most people), and 100-150g fat/day. It is a high fat diet that switches your body from using carbs for energy to using fat for energy.

My doctor has told me I need to go to Johns Hopkins to see an endocrinologist since I have so mnay endocrine problems going on. My question is should I see a regular endocrinologist or a neurologist/endocrinologist. Is there possibly anything going on the requires me to see the specialities of both fields.

Avatar m tn I am now being seen by a urologist at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, MD. The urologist has now brought in a nephrologist on staff to work with us. They have told us they will not stop searching until an answer is found and they can help me. I was told Johns Hopkins and the Mayo Clinic have the best physicians working with kidney stone disease. Don't let them dismiss you!! Dismiss them and move on to another doctor!! GOOD LUCK!!!
Avatar n tn This exercise should help it improve. I just learned this yesterday from Dr. David Guyton, professor at Johns Hopkins and an expert in this field of optics and strabismus. He assisted me on my first cataract when I was a resident at Hopkins. Dr. O.
Avatar m tn I guess I questioning myself, if I should have gone to someone else instead of sticking with the head EP at Hopkins. You like to think the Johns Hopkins has some of the best in their fields. Of course there is always that percentage that it just does not work on. Did you ever discuss actual surgery? Although they do not usually do that just for Afib. BTW, did you ever get tested for sleep apena? Apparently there is a correlation between the two. My test said I did not have sleep apnea.
Avatar f tn First, if lacrosse is that important to you and your parents have the financial means, many people do move away from home to follow their talent. Second, if you want to get into Johns Hopkins, you'd better crack down on the books. Were you good enough to get on the Johns Hopkins lacrosse team? I live in Virginia, and I know that's no easy thing to do.
